Israel: The Next Generation

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Feb 1, 2025

Every generation crosses a river into a new land, taking with them lessons from their ancestors. Your ancestors may not have given you what you needed to travel the desert in safety, but that doesn’t mean it’s too late.

God wants to do a deep work on our character and He accomplishes this through changing the way that we think.

Pursue Something Bigger

Contributed by Benjamin Suulola on Mar 21, 2024

Change will always require stretching, but that’s where power to Breakfree from status quo is generated. No change that is positive and profitable comes by trying to hold steady when God is saying you should stir things up.

You have overstayed your welcome in the valley of coping and indecision. We never grow during status quo! It’s ...read more

Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (14 Of 16)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022

There are very few people that we come into contact with who say, "I do not believe in a God.”

What surprises us about these folks, when we do come into contact with them, is that they will take God's name in vain, using His name when they curse. If they believe there is no God, why bother using His name like that, or at all? We may not know why they use God's name along with curse ...read more

Childishness And Small Religion

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 27, 2025

Jesus calls us to lay down childish stubbornness and take His hand in trusting, growing childlikeness that welcomes the Kingdom.

Have you noticed that Jesus holds two ideas in tension? He tells us to be childlike …and also warns us not to be childish. Only Jesus can say, “Become as little children” and “Grow up”…in the very same breath. He sees what we cannot. He can tell the difference. Our passage today is Luke 7:31-35. ...read more
